| Message | Hosianism is a crucial part of Trigunian society. To deny society its religion is like denying it its oxygen. The Metzists should show some appreciation for this, and leave our religion alone. Also, let me point out that this bill is about more than so-called "secularism", which means the separation of religion from the state. What this bill is actually about is state-mandated, state-enforced atheism. Banning religious schools? Banning religious visitors from visiting our country from abroad? Don't tell me this is secularism - this is ATHEISM! But what else could one expect from Metzist atheist fundamentalists... Druganin Yakovich Leader of the Conservative Party |
